Because I want to see if he holds the Oscar in his hands, strokes it, and murmurs, “My precious.”

Pursuant to the conversation we had at 3 AM, I am leaving in place the latest posting by the person signing himself as “Bendis” (usurping the name of noted comic writer Brian Bendis.) This posting appears toward the end of the responses on previous blog entry entitled “DID ANYONE ELSE NOTICE?” (update: we removed them when we just migrated to new software to cut down on the problem; the original material can be found here.) I am pleased to hear that you will be able to identify this individual and throw him off AOL because of his deliberately disruptive behavior and repeated violation of Terms of Service.

In order to simplify the AOL team’s job, I will ask everyone else on this board not to post anything further on the previous blog entry. “Bendis,” if you want to post another profanity-laded message here, be aware you’ll just be making AOL’s job easier. We’ve been keeping records of the exact times and ISPs through which you’ve been posting.
